  "text": "(This note is not part of the Order)\nThis Order amends Schedule 5 to the Government of Wales Act 2006 (“the 2006 Act”). The effect of the Order is to extend the legislative competence of the National Assembly for Wales to make laws known as Measures of the National Assembly for Wales (referred to in 2006 Act as “Assembly Measures”). The legislative competence conferred by this Order is subject to general limitations on the exercise of that legislative competence, which apply by virtue of section 94 of, and Schedule 5 to, the 2006 Act.\nArticle 2 inserts a new matter 11.1 into field 11 (housing) in Part 1 of Schedule 5 to the 2006 Act. Matter 11.1 is about the provision of automatic fire suppression systems in new residential premises (including existing residential premises that are sub-divided or amalgamated so as to convert them to use as one or more new residences).\nA full regulatory impact assessment has not been carried out since the effect of this Order is only to confer competence on the National Assembly for Wales to legislate.",
